As Atty charged grimly at her opponent the fox, she saw the monitor lizard breaking the rib cage of an unlucky rat. She grimaced as the broken body of the rat crumpled to the earth in a heap. She shook her head of those thoughts and quickly leaped at the burly fox, her cutlass aimed for his skull. The fox was quick though and dodged nimbly, jumping to the left. He flung his pole axe roughly at Atty, but the female fox knelt down and skidded on the ground, her body leaning back and barely missing the onslaught of the weapon.

The two skilled fighters engaged in a fierce battle of speed, skill, and strength. Weapons clashed. Steel glinted. Sparks flew.

Finally. The last vermin was laid low by a well aimed thrust from Atty, but not without getting stabbed in the stomach herself. Atty knelt to the floor, gasping.
